Al Jazeera Show on Hazara Genocide

Increased attacks on the Hazara community in Pakistan have raised questions about the nature of these crimes. Some label them as a wave of sectarian violence between Shias and Sunnis while others warn of a systematic targeting of this ethnic minority. Why are the Hazara targeted? And what is the Pakistani government doing to protect minority groups?

In this episode of The Stream, we speak to Ahmad Shuja, a writer for UN Dispatch; Major Nadir Ali, Senior Leader of the Hazara tribe in Quetta; and Abdul Khaliq Hazara, Chairman of the Hazara Democratic Party.

its not a big network who involves in target killing what actually makes this network bigger is Balochistan Government who actually appoints there favourite people in law enforcement who actually helps target killer to escape and provide sensitive informations and get rid of the evidence What I meant by Balochistan Government is a Chief Minister Aslam Raisani,
